WHEN organized workingmen set
out to do silly thing, they usually
manage to succeed. A strike is re-
ported from Cohoes, n. T., the
cause of the going out being par
ticularly childish. 1t seems that
twenty years ago there was a rule in
the factories that every weaver must
clear up the dirt from under his
loom every two weeks the time for
the clean up has been gradually pro-
longed until now the work need be
performed only twice year. The
other day one of the weavers re-
fused to do the semi annual cleaning
whereupon he was discharged, when
all the weayers in the mill went out
on strike. The Viewers Assembly
took the matter up and endorsed the
strike, and now 4 900 people will be
thrown out of work until the trou-
bic can be adjusted.

Tue Atlanta Constitution knows
all about the watermelon or thinks
he does, which is the same thing
and he tells how it ought to be treat
ed before eaten. 1.-The perfect
Georgia watermellon," he says, ''is
that which has been cooled in dry
well. To freeze so genial thing in
a refrigerator is to impair its tropi
cal tone and to deaden certain hon.
eyful impulses that beat in its warm
heart. A melon in placid reflection
at the bottom of a dry we'll, har-
monizing slowly with the delicious
GOODNESS of the earth, is a melon
approaching idealization." In the
absence of dry well, cool cellar
will be found very good substi-
tute.

AFTER five years Of experience in
the prohibition of the manufacture

the newspapers of that State say it
has wrought results which assured
prosperity in a high degree. If
what these newspapers say Of pro-

likely that the people of that State

That Tired Feeling

Season is here again, and nearly every .one
feels weak, languid and exhausted. The
blood laden with impurities which have been
accommodating for months moves sluggishly
through the veins, the mind fails to think
quickly, and the body is still slower to re-
spond. Hoods Sarsaparilla is just what is
needed. 1t is, in peculiar sense, the ideal
spring medicine. It purifes, vitalizes and
enriches the blood, makes the head clear,
creates an appetite, oyercomes that tired
feeling, and imparts new strength and vigor
to the whole body.
